"Former Army Vet Jailed for Assaulting Officers During Capitol Riot"

Edward Richmond Jr., a military veteran previously convicted of killing an Iraqi civilian, has been ordered jailed for assaulting police officers with a metal baton during the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. The judge deemed him a danger to the community, citing concerns about his potential for violence under pressure. Richmond, who was found with an AR-15 rifle despite being prohibited from possessing firearms, is also facing charges related to the weapon. In a separate case, a man who blind-sided a police officer during the riot has been sentenced to over six years in prison.
